Hiram, As you may know, we are going in a different direction with JMS than the original architecture coded by Norbert Lataille. We are doing a rewrite so patches to the old JBossMQ have a limited lifetime. That means that changes made to the old JBossMQ will most likely not be part of HEAD or the distribution as we move forward.

The existing IL subsystem has been removed. The > 'async' remoting protocol allows two way communications solely over > client sockets (this should allow applet/firewalled clients to connect > to the server).

I hope > a cmp/jdo implementation can be created in the future. > - the old org.jboss.mq.xml package that provided a simple xml dom was > removed and all code that was using was changed to use dom4j instead. > - JNDI Reference object handling was simplified (only StringRefs are > used). > - The sources were refactored so that the back-end messing server is > much less coupled the javax.jms.* classes. The server side is still > importing many of the JMSException classes, this can be cleaned up in > the future.

Most users should not be affected since the JMS > spec states that they should be using JNDI to get those objects. > - Previous JBossMQ clients will not be able to connect to this new > server version (since it is using remoting for communications). Those > clients need to upgrade their jbossmq-client.jar. > - The message format has changed so the new server will not be able to > restore messages saved to persistence storage by the new server. > > I hope to commit the changes CVS in the next few days.
